And, watching Nicole and Jeff live yesterday afternoon during Fun Runs, East side of the course, and looking at their stills ... makes me think that they were "steering braking" as Jon says.
Maybe its because he didnt put the flash links?

Yes. The flash ones are much better

The previous link wanted to install media player plug in.

600+ photos uploading right now:
http://public.fotki.com/makofoto/2010-a ... hamp-race/
Mainly Group 1 through 3 plus Fun Run group 2. Coverage gets spotty in Run Groups 2 and 3 while I was prepping our car.
I'm trying to coordinate with Mike, Kati friend who borrowed my 300 mm to shoot Run Groups 4 and 5 ... so we can see his 400+ photos.
Note that with my photos, that if your car is small in the shot, they usually enlarge pretty nicely. I can show you the enlargement/crop if you're interested. 8X10/12 orders also include the high res digital file.

Thank you for the pictures Mako!!!
I want to order some but I'm not sure in which ones look better because they are a bit small, is there any way to see them a bit bigger?

As I said ... let me know WHICH files and I'll email you what they look like enlarged and cropped. When folks order prints, if the file doesn't look good when I "process" it ... I let them know and suggest alternate files if they're available.

What run group? As I mentioned ... Mike shot groups 4 and 5 ... actually he started with group 3 I think ... although he might have just taken 400+ shots of Kati and our Vette.
I DON'T THINK SO!

Good to remind me and then I actually make an effort to shoot you. Folks that have bought pictures in the past tend to automatically have more shots taken of them.

(So I SHOULD shoot a certain Toyo associated little red Civic with bronze wheels! : -)
